When immigrants Attila and Jana resettle in a rural Australian town as part of a government policy to populate isolated areas, they consider themselves lucky. Although they must work on a wind farm in the middle of nowhere, they have each other, and soon, a family. Problems with narrow minded locals, the isolation, backbreaking labor and immigration officials are the least of their worries when bad things begin to happen to the animals and people in town. As the situation escalates, and fear begins to motivate them, Attila and Jana begin to wonder, are the Turbines only onlookers or guilty of the unthinkable?

There’s a reason when you are watching a well produced movie that you hear traffic in the background, or birds and sounds in the country, etc. It is because when you fill the sound production with this background noise (the sounds that are always present in real life) then it makes for a more real experience. When you cut that out and focus only on the visual and conversation, it sounds hollow. It’s hollow because it isn’t filled with the sounds of life. Usually I would just criticize a movie by saying “It’s hollow” and leaving it at that, but this would really have been a good movie with a little more attention to production aesthetics. Anyway, the story was good, the actors were okay, the parts that were meant to be critical, were just so-so because it was not accentuated by anything to give it that extra energy. The movie itself, aside from the storyline, was a little boring and dead. With a makeover, it could be something worthwhile, but see for yourself. Enjoy!
